Paralympic

The UK has a proud Paralympic（残奥会） heritage, and London 2012 will set new standards for inclusion and accessibility in every aspect of the Games.

The Paralympic Movement has its origins here when neurologist（神经病学家） Sir Ludwig Guttman organised the first wheelchair Games at Stoke Mandeville Hospital to coincide with（符合，一致） the 1948 London Olympics.

Last year saw Manchester hosted the second Paralympic World Cup, while every year the London Marathon attracts an elite¹ field of wheelchair athletes to the capital.

The Olympic Village and all of the stadia（视距） will be fully² accessible both during and after Games.

A creative approach to ticketing will learn from the successful promotion³ of Paralympic events at the 2002 Commonwealth⁴ Games in Manchester.

Multi-venue day tickets and free transport between venues⁵ will ensure every athlete enjoys passionate⁶ and vocal⁷ support.

All of the public transport facilities serving the Olympic Park will be accessible to wheelchair users.

And the entire Docklands Light Railway network and all of London's 21,000 licensed⁸ black cabs are already accessible to wheelchair users, as will every London bus by 2008.
